FT01MHNR FT01MVNR 650 nm DC‐1 MBd RedLink® Fiber Optic Transmitter Data Sheet DESCRIPTION The Firecomms DC to 1 MBd RedLink® transmitter is based on the highly reliable Firecomms designed Resonant Cavity Light Emitting Diode (RCLED) technology. It is housed in a non‐conducting plastic RedLink connector. The 1 MBd transmitter is gray in colour. The housings are compatible with the Versatile Link style fiber plug and are optimized for use with Plastic Optic Fiber (POF) and Polymer Clad Silica (PCS). The transmitter can be driven from TTL type logic drivers. It operates over the industrial temperature range of ‐40 ⁰C to +85 ⁰C, supporting many industrial applications where reliable command and control response is required in electrically harsh environments. The transmitter uses a large‐current aperture (150 μm diameter) red (650 nm) eye‐safe RCLED based on InGaP/InGaAlP/GaAs technology. It operates over a wide range of drive current that can be adjusted using a serial resistor to minimize current consumption for a given link distance. FEATURES 

FIGURE 12 Packing tube for Firecomms Vertical RedLink Transmitters FT01MHNR FT01MVNR Revision B 7 PART HANDLING The Firecomms DC‐1 MBd 650 nm RedLink transmitter devices are color coded gray. They are auto‐
insertable. They are tested for handling in static‐controlled assembly processes (HBM). Cleaning, degreasing and post solder washing should be carried out using standard solutions compatible with both plastics and the environment. For example, recommended solutions for degreasing are alcohols (methyl, isopropyl and isobutyl). Acetone, ethyl acetate, phenol or similar solution based products are not permitted. In the soldering process, non‐halogenated water soluble fluxes are recommended. These products are not suitable for use in reflow solder processes (infrared/vapor‐phase reflow). The dust plug should remain in place during soldering, washing and drying processes to avoid contamination of the active optical area of each part. The Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) classification of this device is 2a according to JEDEC J‐STD‐020E. The shelf life of an unopened MBB (Moisture Barrier Bag) is 24 months at < 40 °C and < 90 % R.H. Once the Moisture Barrier Bag is opened the devices can be either, a) Stored in normal factory conditions < 30 °C and < 60 % R.H. for a maximum of 672 hours (4 Weeks) prior to soldering. b) Stored at < 10 % R.H. (Dry Cabinet). FT01MHNR FT01MVNR Revision B 8 PACKING INFORMATION Components are packed in PVC anti‐static tubes in moisture barrier bags. Bags should be opened only in static‐controlled locations, and standard procedures should be followed for handling moisture sensitive components.
